As reported in the radiancy study, the patient experienced stenosis of the radial artery approximately one month after initial procedure.This was noted to be related to the brite tip sheath.The stenosis was the result of the trauma that was caused by the passing device.Approximately 2 weeks post procedure, the patient experienced carpal tunnel syndrome.This was noted to be possibly related to the procedure or any of the devices used.Approximately 6 weeks after initial procedure, neurolysis of the nerve was performed.The radial artery stenosis was mild and was noted to be definitely related to the procedure. there has been no treatment to the stenosis site.The left distal radial artery was used for access via ultrasound.The patient was noted to have peripheral artery disease and a rutherford/becker classification of stage 3.The patient has a history of hypertension and a history of smoking.The lesion was in the right common femoral artery (cfa).The lesion was noted to have mild calcification with a 60% stenosis.The lesion was 20mm long and the total vessel diameter was 9mm.An unknown 6f 110cm sheath was initially inserted.No vasospasm occurred.An unknown guidewire crossed the lesion successfully.The sheath was then changed to the 6f 110cm brite tip radianz sheath.Pre-dilation was not done to the lesion.The 9x30 smart radianz stent was deployed successfully.The device was withdrawn successfully.After placement, the lesion was noted to have 0% residual stenosis.A second stent was not needed.Post-dilation was done with the 9mm x 3cm saber radianz balloon catheter.Inflation was successful and the device was withdrawn without difficulty.The sheath was withdrawn successfully, and an unknown vascular closure device was used for hemostasis.Hemostasis was achieved due to the clotting thrombocytes.The devices will not be returned for evaluation.

(above) code not available: carpal tunnel syndrome.As reported in the radiancy study, the patient experienced stenosis of the radial artery approximately one month after initial procedure.This was noted to be related to the brite tip sheath.The stenosis was the result of the trauma that was caused by the passing device.Approximately 2 weeks post procedure, the patient experienced carpal tunnel syndrome.This was noted to be possibly related to the procedure or any of the devices used.Approximately 6 weeks after initial procedure, neurolysis of the nerve was performed.The radial artery stenosis was mild and was noted to be definitely related to the procedure.There has been no treatment to the stenosis site.The left distal radial artery was used for access via ultrasound.The patient was noted to have peripheral artery disease and a rutherford/becker classification of stage 3.The patient has a history of hypertension and a history of smoking.The lesion was in the right common femoral artery (cfa).The lesion was noted to have mild calcification with a 60% stenosis.The lesion was 20mm long and the total vessel diameter was 9mm.An unknown 6f 110cm sheath was initially inserted.No vasospasm occurred.An unknown guidewire crossed the lesion successfully.The sheath was then changed to the 6f 110cm brite tip radianz sheath.Pre-dilation was not done to the lesion.The 9x30 smart radianz stent was deployed successfully.The device was withdrawn successfully.After placement, the lesion was noted to have 0% residual stenosis.A second stent was not needed.Post-dilation was done with the 9mm x 3cm saber radianz balloon catheter.Inflation was successful and the device was withdrawn without difficulty.The sheath was withdrawn successfully, and an unknown vascular closure device was used for hemostasis.Hemostasis was achieved due to the clotting thrombocytes.The products were not returned for analysis.A product history record (phr) review of lot 18074756 (brite tip radianz), lot 18072332 (smart radianz) and lot 82241262 (saber radianz) revealed no anomalies or non-conformances during the manufacturing and inspection processes that can be associated with the reported events.Without the return of the devices or images for analysis, the reported customer events ¿vascular access complication, carpal tunnel syndrome and vascular injury¿ could not be confirmed.The use of an inappropriately sized catheter or patient anatomy may have contributed to the vascular access complication and access site injury.The carpal tunnel syndrome may have been caused by procedural factors such as an inadvertent needle stick or the use of an inappropriately sized catheter, which caused injury to the median nerve.Users are trained to inspect for signs of damage prior to and during use.Any product with damage is not to be used.Information for safety is provided in the products labeling with the intent to make the user aware of the risks.According to the instructions for use (ifu), although not intended as a mitigation of risk, ¿prior to use, confirm that the catheter guiding sheath size is appropriate for the access vessel to be used.¿ possible complications include, but are not limited to: abrupt vessel closure, additional intervention ¿ air embolism ¿ allergic reaction (contrast medium and medications), embolic stroke/cerebral infarct, hematoma at puncture, hemorrhage, inflammation / infection / sepsis, intimal tear, ischemia, necrosis, pain, perforation of vessel wall, peripheral nerve injury, thrombus formation, vascular complications (e.G.Intimal tear, dissection, pseudo aneurysm, perforation, rupture, spasm, occlusion).Based on the information available and the phr reviews, there is no indication that the event is related to the device design or manufacturing process.Therefore, no preventative or corrective actions will be taken at this time.
